D26.9
ICD-10-CMThis code represents a non-cancerous growth within the uterus that is not specifically identified as a leiomyoma (fibroid) or other specified benign uterine neoplasm. It indicates the presence of an abnormal, but benign, cellular proliferation within the uterine tissue when the precise histological type is unknown or unstated.
Use this code when documentation confirms a benign uterine neoplasm, but the specific type (e.g., adenomyoma, polyp, lipoma) is not documented or cannot be determined from the available medical record. This code is appropriate when the physician's diagnosis is "benign neoplasm of uterus, unspecified" or similar terminology without further specificity.
